It began as a whisper: Paul is dead.

But the deeper investigators dug, the clearer it became… they’d been listening to the wrong word.
This is the lost BBC report that uncovers the real story — Paul is Fred.

A haunting, hilarious mockumentary full of suspicious accents, unhelpful witnesses, and an unstoppable married couple who somehow saw everything.

The mystery that fooled a generation… and a parody that’ll fool you twice.
